Soon I'm gonna leave this place for good The city lies as the city should Yeah, you know there's just One place to be New Mexico wait for me And oh, I wanna go Where the air is clean And oh, New Mexico wait for me When I was a boy I would dream at night A cowboy's dream by a cowboy light Even though I haven't got to ride in yet New Mexico won't forget And oh, I wanna go Where the air is clean And oh, New Mexico wait for me And I'm gonna take a ride Through the mountains gallow Stare into the great array Maybe take a bath in the San Francisco This is where I'll stay Oh, I wanna go where the air is clean Oh, New Mexico wait for me New Mexico wait for me

    General Comment:Oh how he wished to be a cowboy as a young boy... maybe. Could be about getting away to a more perfect life too. Damn artists and their "metaphors".
